The city centre’s new attraction for authentic Malay fare, Hening is a super-friendly sanctuary in a Damai Road bungalow, a five-minute drive from KLCC. Its cooking pulls no punches for flavour and fieriness - Ikan Pekasam Utara, preserved fish with a bold fermented savoury tang; Kerabu Pucuk Paku; and Ulam-Ulaman with pleasurably pungent Sambal Belacan.
